The Holy Spirit can lead you guide and confort you through it all Heaven and hell is real cone to the loving savior today Today is the day of salvation tomorrow might be to late come to the loving savior today John 3:16-21 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. Mark 1.15 15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel. 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. Hebrews 11:6 6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Jesus

No way. I heard rumours that Opel had in the distant past programmed the keys in batches of 100, each key in a particular batch would be programmed exactly the same as the other 99.

RUSHY 01 I blame the shitty kids who made the decision to steal cars and the shitty parents who don't raise those kids right, although some kids just end up being screw-ups regardless of how you raise them, not the car companies who didn't innovate. What about before the 80s? Cars were even simpler. No EFI. No electronic anything. Just pop the door lock, hotwire the car and maybe pop the wheel lock if the wheel is, well, locked. And people still get away with stealing cars, including high-end luxury cars. Are the manufacturers still responsible? I know cars were built poorly in the 80s, but that's no reason to blame the engineers for them getting stolen.

And he noticed, she didn't turned off the light. Before the battery went empty, he tried to open the door with the key for his car and.... it worked. He left a letter in her car "Have turned off your light".

@british.urchin

Ryan M. Just guessing, but hazard lights need to work when the ignition is off, so there must be a permanent 12V in there. Is the switch illuminated? If so, there’s a switched 12V in there too. A bit of carelessness with the design allows one to be connected to the other, through the switch, thus powering up the whole car.

They continued this for years, cars with remote locking and alarms, when the car is locked and alarm ingaged, the hazards would flash which means the anti theft system is attached to the indicators, the ecu tells the indicators to flash when car is locked, sending voltage to the bulbs, so technically if you reverse polarity and send voltage back the outher way! Providing there are no one way resisters in the way....... which is what he did with the switch, I thinks?
@tomsixsix

The hazard light switch has the ignition and always on supplies. I think it lights up when the ignition is on, but am not sure about that car. But anyway, reversing it simply connects the ignition and standby supplies together...through some rather small wiring, mind, so if you try and use something like the window heater (if this car has one) or fan it'll probably burn something out. But its enough to get the car to drive.

only on cars with this design flaw, will vary from model to model. in any case early cars w/out an immobiliser just needed ignition and power connected, you might even be able to do that from e.g. an OBD-II connector or the cigarette lighter.

I've been trying to find out how my car key works on my Saab 93 2005? Do u know about keys? Was trying to figure out how to bypass the key out of curiosity, does it read a resister? Can u cut the sender wires and solder a inline resister? I want to know what princable the key works on??? It's intrigued me for years
@tomsixsix

ben king no idea specifically as not really a car guy but a 2005 car probably has an immobiliser, so I'd look at that first. The keys have a chip in them that is read via RFID (similar to contactless credit cards). When the code is read the immobiliser allows the engine to run.

Xavier Capela the ignition is on. so the car is fully operational. But there is no button to use the starter except for the key. you can hotwire the ignition to start the car, but in this case they pushed the car and let the clutch off. The engine then starts turning and starts.

when you normally start your car with key you are powering the starter motor which turns the crankshaft making it starting, they are doing the same thing but using the car inertia and trasmission to do it

I’ve had three of these when I was younger and never knew this. My last one had the hazard light switch superglued in so you couldn’t use it. I replaced it with a working one from the breakers yard 🤔 Now I know why.
